(Home of Loaf & Jug, Noble Snowmen, and Mice)

"Did you see all the elk near the airport?""Do you think we can eat them?" (Yes but only with elephantiasis. See photo of Million Dollar Cowboy Bar below.)

"What's up with the wifi (at the Elk Country Inn)?""Maybe it's the lapis.""Damn those Afghans."(Thanks Mexican Nathan for switching our rooms since someone broke the TV and wifi with their Taliban lapis.)

"I'm gonna snowboard down the whole mountain to the street and right to Wendy's."

"Pork Neck Ragu as seen on Drivers, Diners, and Diners. I mean Drivers, Drivers, and Diners." (That'd be Diners, Drive ins and Dives.)

The Noble Pig"We bought all healthy snackiepoos this time." (Day One)

"Salad instead of fries with the burger?" "Yes." (1200 on Day Two)"Want to split an order of fries?" "Yes." (1210 on Day Two)"We didn't eat most of the snackiepoos, like the vegetables and the guac." "Let's just leave them for Nathan." (Day Eight)

The Noble Snowman

The Noble Snowman with Scenic Backdrop"Someone stole the noble snowman's top hat.""You mean the trash can?"

Son of the Noble Snowman (playing hard to get).

Will you sleep in the teepee?

"Look at the ice ball." (At The Handle Bar)"It's like a lapis ball." (Thirty minute lapis tangents will continue until one fulfills the lapis ball quest."Except it doesn't cause a vortex with electronics."

"Why aren't drinks half off?""It's an unhappy hour. It's where you shave instead of drink." "In case you have a five o'clock shadow."Possible pets of charred Mexicans in Cabo.

"That moose is a pig! He hasn't stopped eating!"

"That moose is an asshole. He won't move from behind the tree.""Did you just call that moose an asshole?"

"You had half a fatty for breakfast." (And no one's happy except for the panus.)

"Do you have any bowls to hold cereal and milk?""It'll hold up unless you eat the whole box."Thanks for the advice (on the disposable nacho paper boats), Bob. Clearly you haven't eaten a whole box of anything.

Second best Loaf & Jug souvenir (after L&J cooler of course).

"Dude look at that guy he has ice in his beard! Holy shit look at his hair - he looks like he hasn't seen the base of the mountain in weeks! Probably hasn't been back down since Burton started making snowboards.""I don't see him.""He's behind the water fountain.""He's taking too long.""Dude leave him alone. He hasn't had a drink in years. He's prob been living off the ice in his beard. He prob does the couloir as warm up.""He prob thinks the couloir sucks.""He prob thinks who takes a chair lift to a run."

No photo of Unabomber, only Corbet's Couloir, because a discussion about said Unabomber for 30 mins (15x the length of actual sighting) is much better than one picture.

No trash cow just trash as our tram companion.

"He's wearing snowboarding boots. We just saw a unicorn."(No photos of unicorn. Both Unabomber and unicorn possibly more elusive than horse cow.)

Photo of the best mullet ever though.

"I had a dream that you ran a half marathon.""That sounds like a nightmare.""And before you raced you went to zen out w someone playing music.""So basically you combined my lack of exercise with the Unabomber.""Really? You're going to drive with the balaclava?"

"What movie are you seeing? Are you going to eat all your popcorn?""Did that homeless guy just ask for our popcorn?""That hobo is seeing Paddington thanks God."

"Should we bring Kofi Annan to the movies?""No let's leave him in the car."

Kofi Annan (aka Kouign Amann)

"What's that movie about?""Stephen hawking. It's supposed to be really good.""Wasn't he retarded?""He has palsy you asshole."

"I feel sick and I still have a Kofi Annan in my pocket.""Do you want to save your (day old) Kofi Annan? Maybe you'll get hungry later."

"Would you like some (two day old) Kofi Annan?"

"Want to touch (three day old) Kofi Annan?"

Not a Kofi Annan (but still not for sharing with hobos).

"The windshield is so foggy I have to drive like Ace Ventura."Photo of ace?

"What time does that market open? We should get a sandwich for the plane instead of that ghetto food they sell."

So close to a free sandwich...

"We're never going to get the free sandwich. We should give the card to Nathan. We need five more. I'm just saying that if we eat a really early breakfast we'll need two sandwiches, one for the airport and one for the plane.""But who's gonna eat that fifth sandwich?""What fifth sandwich?""We need a fifth to get the free one.""Who's gonna eat six sandwiches?"(Abridged version of conversation which actually took almost all twenty minutes of pizza wait time.)

"Do you think you're an Art 101 artist?""Yeah! And also Opera 101." (What happens when there's no KK on E! and only those wrestlers.)

"I missed out on the ass massage both times.""Well if they didn't massage my ass they wouldn't have massaged anything."

Photo post colossal back plant.

Best prezzie ever.

The Karate Kid (clearly meeting up with the Unabomber, Mice, and charred Mexican pets).
